“…In 1961, Schultz [51] already pointed out that it is not material investments and financial resources but human capital that is the most important factor of production. It should be stressed that the processes and trends in this area are slower than in the case of economic, social, infrastructural, or even environmental development, but the profound transformations taking place in the population structure have a lasting impact on development, especially of local systems [52]. In the case of Poland, the features of the current and future demographic development indicate that the dynamics of population development and changes in the country's population structure by age (proportions of economic age groups) are not favourable.…”

The aim of this paper is to assess the territorial cohesion of municipalities (gminas) in Poland using quantitative data and non-parametric modelling techniques. The full population of 2174 Polish municipalities divided into rural and urban-rural municipalities was examined. The time interval of the study, i.e., 2005–2017, allows us to capture the changes stimulated by the implementation of the cohesion policy, i.e., the programme of socio-economic transformation in Poland, implemented in the programming period 2007–2013. Using the DEA approach, a general decline in the cohesion index value over time was recorded in the period of analysis. The results of estimating autocorrelation measures indicate a progressive tendency to build spatial clusters, where the size of the local administrative unit (municipality), measured by the population potential and spatial location of the municipality significantly affect the cohesion level. It was also found that there are limits of positive influence of the EU income on the possibility of achieving a high level of cohesion, hampered by a limited resource of own funds. The research method in this paper has been empirically validated and can be applied to territorial cohesion studies in other EU countries.

“…While the cultural social elements as a basic is not change (Sutarto, 2016)). The alteration is based on the substance pressing, not only cover the needs but also offer a new culture and main service (education, health and economy) (Chmieliński & Chmielewska, 2015) For the Arfak locals, cooperating in the core estate and being smallholders of palm oil has grown the consciousness that it is important to aid the development of a better living standard. As the plasma farmers, the Arfak locals should interact with all parties include the company parties, and it requires an openness to learn and take experience from other parties.…”

Shifting cultivation of Arfak farmer is a traditional planting which they inherited from their ancestor. This research aims to explain the environmental condition of shifting cultivation in Indisey and Somi villages and the barriers in socio-economy, social capital, and human capital. This research applies a cross-sectional study which is taken in a short period of time and done step by step to get certain points that lead to a clear conclusion. The results of the study show that shifting cultivation condition in Indisey and Somi villages have the fertility soil signed by the existing of trees called Bembuk and Ciskua. The farmworkers are their own family members and there are job divisions between men and women. There is also a traditional policy called Igya ser hanjob to manage the social life and natural resources of Arfak ethnic. The result of study also shows that the socio-economic condition of Arfak's community is started to improve. They are generous people who would love to give after they fulfilled their own needs. They open to new things and would like to learn from others. If there is conflict, it is due to the culture shock of local people when they have to follow the government program namely resettlement and the land demand of the palm oil expansion.

“…Rural areas are marked by a number of physical and socio-economic features including: low density of population and development, landscape predominated by open green spaces, "surface" economic activity mainly of agricultural and forestry functions, lifestyle of residents predetermined by affiliation to a small social group and identify and appearance of the population deeply rooted in distinctive peasant culture (Chmielinski, Chmielewska, 2015). Rural areas in Serbia are highly diverse in terms of natural endowments, economic, social and population characteristics.…”

“…Diversity of rural areas is driven by natural resource endowments, cultural and historical heritage, as well as economic, social and demographic patterns (Papić, Bogdanov, 2015). Rural areas are usually associated with farmlands and farms, as well as a place to stay for a summer holiday or to go to for a weekend trip (Chmielinski, Chmielewska, 2015). Nowadays, predominant opinion is that a rural region represents a territorial unit with one or more small/middle-sized towns surrounded by a large area of open space, with a relatively low population density and regional economic structure, which reflects the situation of a certain labour market (Bogdanov, Stojanovic, 2006).…”

The air quality, in general, has an important impact on the development of rural areas, and sustainable rural development. Air quality is a very important parameter both for sustainable rural development and for life on earth in general. In this context, it is interesting to analyze the correlation between sustainable rural development and the state of air quality dependent on the amount of pollutant concentration, expressed by the air quality index SAQI_11. The main attention in the research was focused on the analysis of the numerical values of pollutants concentrations, for the period of averaging-24h and the calendar year, in accordance with the classes of the Air Quality Index SAQI_11, and the analysis of the air quality trend by zones and agglomerations for the period 2012-2015. Conclusions on air quality, SAQI_11 air quality index classes, and on correlation with sustainable rural development were carried out for agglomerations "
